Thanks Gary! // Anyone ever heard Arab online station "Medi 1" from Morocco? I used to hear old (archived) Arab music there. (They since changed the page format-- less easy to use. I know no Arabic nor French.)

Hyde, I forgot to tell the end of that story -- it turns out Daff and Raff maybe wasn't there awfully long and the photographer, while he had photos of that building, didn't have any of the store when it was there

Hi, Gary. Busy like anything in the kitchen, but poking my head in to say how much I'm enjoying this. I got the cast album for "The Band's Visit" for Christmas (saw the show last spring) and it's great to hear the score's historical antecedents.

@TDK - thanks for the tip on the WNYU show! It looks like episodes are archived on the site, though the navigation is a bit clunky - I had to go to Archives/Filter, then select each Wednesday individually to find the old episodes of that show. Looking forward to checking it out!
